In my recent mixtape adventures I’ve discovered that not all tapes are created equal, and am now getting information about different chemical formulas. Hopefully this will lead to less tape chews, and more settled playback. Annoyingly I have also discovered my Nakamichi does output to record, but the amplifier I’m using does not allow tape to record. Wtf was my exact response. But I never bought my amp wth tape in mind. In fact, I couldn’t have imagined ever needing it until very recently. Anyway this means I have to use my D6C which has no bias control and fine detail recording functions.
I have always used sa-90, and recently a few cheap and cheerful type 1 but the results have been a bit shit.
So here’s what I have so far: Tapeline sell blanks of various kinds, odd rare tapes and little bits and pieces if you were to release your own tapes of your band or something. But Cassette Comeback who sell loads of blanks are also selling a brand new tape from the NAC for a few £. Brand new, as in, tape was stopped and it’s been restarted with new specs.

I bought the new NAC and some other ones. Will report back.
